Where my Florida bros at?

Just gonna drink and play dark souls until my power inevitably goes out.

You that user from Irma? I remember someone posting about some animal when the storm was coming.

Playing Armello and Pokemon Heartgold

That takes like 15 minutes per house unless they got more than one floor to the house.

>That takes like 15 minutes per house unless they got more than one floor to the house.
One of them is a huge two-story house that my parents own that they don't even live in. They've been trying to renovate the place to move into but they've been stuck in bureaucratic hell.

Well why are stitting there with your thumb up your ass and not rescuing her?

It looks like it's projected to go north of Miami though.

I live in Jupiter/west palm and I'm like dead set in the center of its cone. I also live in a 30 year old wood frame home. Shit's a bummer.

Annoyed at shitters hoarding food and making traffic unbearable, but excited to crack some beers with my roommates and wait out the storm

>Playan during the storm?
My power infamously goes off when it rains for more than an hour so probably some shit on my phone while I cook alive from the lack of A.C.
>Readan during the storm?
Dunno yet. Internet if my phone allows it.

Maybe the Chappelle netflix special and john wick 3

Annoyed. I was going to move in a few days and this throws everything out of wack.

As long as I have electricity otherwise it's going to be hot and swampy air for 3 days

Be honest, do you guys think this will be a legit bad storm or just a passing Cat 1 or 2 storm?

The media keeps exaggerating the severity of the storm and saying shit like it'll be a Cat 4 and it'll destroy half of Florida.

>classic wow

>comfy because no work and rain sounds

I'm gonna be so fucking pissed if my power gets knocked out though.

None of you are playing shit with power going out

That's why I got handhelds and powerbanks.

Hurricanes get stronger the more intense the weather is
Given that this was one of the hottest years in recorded history, I think this will be a big disaster

i'm a floridafag bug i'm not gonna be there during the storm
HAVE FUN SUCKERS HAHAHAHAH

It'll probably be around a cat 3 or 4. The media is saying it has a chance of becoming a cat 4 because they want people to prepare for the worst. That and hurricanes tend to get stronger when sitting in warm waters.

They're starting to predict that it will go up along the coast though, we're probably not gonna get any accurate info until the next two days.

Why didn't I think of this?

Consider each plant has its own turn and action units. have fun.

Probably going to be Skyrim at this rate, though I doubt it will hit where I'm at. It's going to swing north soon after making land fall. Lots of rain for sure, but no real big heavy winds. Western Florida has been rather lucky for the last few years.

That fucking sucks because I live out in the middle of bumfucking nowhere and once the storm hits I'll likely be out of power for two weeks again like with Irma.

I don't know if electric companies do this or not but they should display a plan of action of which areas they would hit first following a major outage. It'd give people a bit more peace of mind I believe.

>until the power goes out

Switch chads rise up

I hope your place gets looted

great power going to go out. Its not like I have fun playing video games to miss them.

I think so. I have about 50 whistling ducks on my lawn daily, and they were all just huddling in the open to avoid falling debris.

I live on a hospital grid in central florida so I might lose power for a few hours at worst. Last hurricane nothing at all happened in my entire community so im sure this one will be just as meh. Still if a window breaks im gonna be upset.

I hope my job loses power to it once the storm comes or gets fucked up badly. I already know my house will but I don't want to go to work if I can't play VIDYA after the storm.

Jokes on you, I've got a huge generator.

>used to live 3 blocks from a hospital
>power and internet were amazing
>apartment was super shitty though
you can never have it all.

I live in broward but being a 33 year old boomer has made me numb to all weather. Even a cat-5 wouldn't make me give a shit.

Why don’t you dumb assholes move instead of getting your shit pushed in by storms every 3 months?

>live next to a hospital
>be in most danger of infection during zombie apocalypse

Dammit. I just wanted stable electricity for vidya

I put all of my window shutters in place with a crank in 10 minutes and all of my furniture can be raised ~3-5 feet with cinder blocks if there's flooding. My entire neighborhood is the same. We've lived here forever and we're used to it. About 4 of us get our grills and have a party at one of our houses if our power goes out.

She'll be okay user. Florida's build codes are baller-ass since Katrina and most buildings will take it like champs.

>play for an hour and a half
>switch dies
yaaaaayyy

I'm fucking nervous. My best friend lives in Florida. She might be out of the path but that shit is unpredictable. Floridabros go throw things at the hurricane to slow it down.

I was in North Florida during Andrew. The heat in the Atlantic is capable of making multiple Andrews in a single season. I'm just waiting for it to blast my house apart one year so I can take the insurance and move to the mountains of Tennessee.

My mistake.

it's like one storm a year and it's usually never even bad

Tampa, prob gonna be safe from the worst. Gotta day off on Tues as well.

Hurricanes can't really cause any world ending damage to Florida. Our buildings and infrastructure are designed to handle it. We've got a pretty robust storm drain system with man-made reservoirs and relief channels all over the place. It only wrecks places like Louisiana and Texas because they don't get massive hurricanes very often. They get complacent and their cities can't deal with it.

Cat 4 isn't really a big deal in Florida since homes are made of concrete and either have shutters or impact windows approved up to 200 MPH winds.

Cat 5 is where you get to the spooky shit.

I know you're being condescending but this is actually making me feel better so thanks

is anyone floridafag in this thread unlucky enough that their power lines are still above ground?

good question. but in all seriousness, that's decently far from the projected path of the eye, so she should be okay I think.

fuck u boca

His condescension actually mirrors how I feel about the storm. I've been through like eight hurricanes, with half of them being direct hits, and I just don't give a fuck.

Literally only Boca as far as I know. And fuck that place. Glades Road traffic is bullshit.

Shit, they sound better than earthquakes now. If I wasn't such a pussy about hot, humid weather I'd consider moving there in a few years.

Idk might download something on said iPad, but storage is limited on it. So maybe just some MST3K episodes

>Listenan during the storm?
Maybe some Giant Bomb

>Feelan during the storm?
Stressed for the lone fact that my fiance and I can't decide which of our parents house to stay at since it might be a cat 4. If it was going to be 3 or under we were just gonna stay home. But it's just my parents alone in their house so I'd rather be there, and she wants to be with her family during the storm understandibly.

>Comfyan during the storm
It'll be maximum comfy if we can stay at our place. Just post up in the recliner and partake in everything mentioned above. Separating from my lady and sitting in a dark room with my folks is significantly less comfy.

youtu.be/1ncAUFgTDq8

been playing gacha shit, hope my power doesn't out for a fucking week like during the last hurricane.

Most if not all of West Palm has their lines still above ground. It's bullshit.

Almost as much bullshit as Glades.

West Palm Beach here. How fucked am I?

cool

A little electricity won't kill you. You've already got electricity running through your entire body.

Pensacola here. As a former SWFloridian of 28 years, Im curious to see if this one will make it across the state to do anything this far into the panhandle.

Im friends with a stripper. We go get wafflehouse sometimes after she gets off and sometimes she even pays for me with what she made that night. I occasionally go watch her dance and tip her. It was awkward at first, but shes cool with it now. Maybe some day I'll buy a lapdance from her if I'm willing to push my luck.

H-hopefully it doesn't hit georgia

No, because Disney Land is in California.

Disney is a fortress so even if it did it'd be fine. And even IF big damage happened, the Mouse has everything insured and covered up the wazoo so hard they could probably build 5x more than they lost.

I'm routing for it to tear up the star wars lot. Its a known fact that's its the most expensive lot they made so far so seeing any damage to that is like seeing mickey getting kicked in the nuts.

I can't remember the last time a model got it right this many days out or multiple models agreed. Just sit tight nigga

Newest track has it curving north and just riding along the coast I think. That should honestly be a little better. But we get plenty of storms around here and your house should be built to handle more than that. Just make sure you and your house are prepped and you'll be good user.

t. Fellow West Palm Fag

>that one model where is just yeets off to Georgia and South Carolina
Lol, that would be hilarious if it actually happened. They would not be prepared for it at all.

Im just anxious cause my arms are fucked up by tendonitis and theyre super sensitive to pressure changes. I cant do shit man

Drink some tea or somethin. Go for a walk. Ride it out like everyone else and if shit hits the fan dont do anything stupid.

Plywood will stop most little branches and random shit which is 99% of the stuff. If you need shutters to stop something heavier than that odds are you're getting a bunch of damage no matter what.

It will lose power once it eats some mobile homes.

depends on where you are

No power = Hot as balls for a week, and no shower
flooding = real hard to drive around and shit will be closed
When your light flicker back on and the AC kicks in will be the greatest relief in your life.

Wind and rain and no water at publix for a week, maybe an couple hours no power, then tree branches in the road for a week after.
Unless you're near the shore and it hits as a 4. Then you're going to have trees down and windows blown out in some places, maybe one or two unlucky bastards gets a hole in their roof.

The leaning tree is near some power wires so it's not only a risk to my house but also the power that's why they didn't cut it

same goes for the cracking tree

surprisingly, it survived Irma in its tropical storm phase
